Chris Boonzaier Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 NCO and enlisted men who ONLY had prussian awards at the end of the war... Would be interested in how different tailors mounted these...
christerd Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Ok, when I look at mine , it seems that I compete in "the ugliest of the year " The first one isn´t that bad , but wait for my next contribution .... First one , a little bit aged but still worn with pride (I guess)
christerd Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Here is the next one .... Belive it or not , but it is a Fracken Spange . Now very very aged .
Chris Boonzaier Posted January 13, 2013 Author Posted January 13, 2013 I always feel sorry for the poor Prussian soldiers.... Unlike Bavarians, Hessens, Saxons... there was usually only one medal they could get... The EK.... Luckily there was post war expansion opportunity...

turtle Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 This one belonged to one my great-grandfathers, he was also awarded a Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz in WWI. He later got a Treudienstehrenzeichen in Silber.
saschaw Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 rujab, this is most likely not an EM's or NCO's. But still nice...
Chris Boonzaier Posted January 13, 2013 Author Posted January 13, 2013 Ups................sorry Thats OK, we make exceptions for nice things ;-)

Scott Powell Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 A veteran of 1870 who was recalled for the Great War. I enjoy the contrast of the two Non Combatant awards paired with his EK
